Dildarnagar is a town and a nagar panchayat in Ghazipur district of Uttar Pradesh, India. Dildarnagar is a developing and new face town. It is 70 km from Varanasi and 20 km from Ghazipur.

History

Dildarnagar is on the road from Varanasi to Buxar and 20 km. from Ghazipur. Between the town and the station there is mound called Akhandha, said to have been the seat of Raja Nal; the large tank to the west is called Rani Sagar after his famous queen Damayanti. In the center of the mound are the ruins of two temples. A Hindu settlement owes its present name, perhaps, to Sadi. During the tenure of Aurangzeb a few market centres developed such as Dildarnagar (Tahsil Zemania) named after one of his officials.

Dildarnagar, a village in Tahsil Zamaniya, 20 miles south of Ghazipur, derives its name from a Pathan named Dildar Khan who settled here in the reign of Aurangzeb, after having destroyed the ancient Hindu town of Akhandha. [1] The Mughals were victorious and the Rajput army was scattered. Dham Deo and his elder brother Kam Deo came down to Ghazipur with their families and followers. According to the book, Evolution and Spatial Organization of Clan Settlement by S H Ansari, the Sikarwar Rajputs of Gahmar (one of biggest villages in Asia situated on the bank of river Ganga) emerged from Dham Deo and Bhumihar and Kamsar Pathans emerged from Kam Deo.

Many of the Khanzada Rajputs villages are situated near the town of Dildarnagar.
